Serious arrhythmia was prospectively defined as any arrhythmia that requires immediate medical attention including persistent ventricular tachycardia (>30 s), ventricular fibrillation, asystole, and high degree atrioventricular (AV)-block requiring pacemaker insertion during hospitalization.RESULTS: In the derivation cohort, among 228 NSTEMI patients who underwent successful early percutaneous revascularization, one patient (0.4%, 95% confidence interval 0.02-2.8%) had a serious arrhythmia which occurred 21 h after revascularization.
